Editorial Review:

Product Description:
How to Cook for Crohn's and Colitis is a cookbook for anyone who suffers from inflammatory bowel disease (IBD, not to be confused with irritable bowel syndrome) or cooks for someone who has the disease. While there is no known cure for Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis, their symptoms can be controlled in part by following the dietary guidelines of the American Dietetic Association and those outlined in Dr. Fred Saibil's Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis: Everything You Need to Know and by other experts.
Brenda Roscher provides sound nutritional advice and outlines the unique dietary needs of people with IBD, showing how to incorporate this information to make healthy choices about which foods to eat.
The recipes in How to Cook for Crohn's and Colitis are designed for the home cook, with easy-to-understand directions and ingredients found in local grocery stores. Because they are simple, many of the recipes can be prepared quickly, which makes them convenient for busy cooks. Finally, the recipes are designed with families in mind, to create meals that everyone can enjoy.
How to Cook for Crohn's and Colitis also contains informative sidebars on such topics as: Tips on Dining Out, Organic vs. Non-Organic Foods, How to Read a Nutrition Label, Kneading Bread Dough, and Tips on Skimming Fat from Broth. It also contains a reading list for anyone who wants to learn more about IBD and nutrition, plus a comprehensive index.
The recipes are organized into the following categories: appetizers, chili-chowders-soups, salads and salad dressings, sandwiches, breads savory and sweet, beef and pork, poultry, fish and seafood, past and sauces, side dishes, condiments and sweets.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Wonderful Book for People with UC
I was diagnosed with UC in December of 2001. I studied up on the disease to educate myself and I found recipes here and there that I liked. The problem was that many of the recipes required the purchasing of expensive items at the health food store that I had never heard of. Another problem was that the food was stuff that I normally wouldn't eat. This book is perfect for an average UC patient. By average I mean you're not used to spending a ton of money on your nightly dinner. These recipes ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Not for healing, does not follow the Specific Carbohydrate Diet
If you are following the Specific Carbohydrate Diet by Elaine Gottschall, don't buy this book. It doesn't follow the guidelines of the SCD. If you want to be free from symptoms of inflammatory bowel disease and heal yourself, you need to obtain the book Breaking the Vicious Cycle by Elaine Gottschall and then after starting the diet you can find a handful of great SCD cookbooks right here on [...].



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Recipes with adjustments for IBD
Reviewed by Irene Watson for Reader Views (11/07)

Brenda Roscher's book is certainly one of the best on the market for anyone with IBD (inflammatory bowel disease) and their families. We often think anyone with IBD can't eat "normal" food and separate cooking for them is essential. This is not the case, and Roscher certainly proves it.

The beginning of the book gives a brief outline of the diseases as well as causes, diagnosis and nutritional facts. The sidebars contain ... Read More
